Does spraying water on concrete help it cure?

• <div><p>Spraying water on concrete will slow down the curing process and can help create a stronger slab. Spraying your concrete may be necessary if you’re pouring in hotter temperatures above 60 degrees Fahrenheit, if it’s particularly windy, or if your new concrete is exposed to intense sunlight. Avoid spraying for the first four hours, and then spray five to 10 times a day for the following week. </p></div>

How much do concrete contractors usually charge?

• <div><p>Concrete contractors typically charge anywhere from <b>$6 to $14 per square foot</b>. Cost factors include job size, site prep, base material, accessibility, your location, concrete finish, and concrete thickness. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-should-concrete-demo-cost-square-foot.htm">Removal of existing concrete</a>, asphalt, deck, pavers, and grass will cost anywhere from $1 to $6 per square foot. Homeowners can often save money by removing and disposing of existing pavers, decks, and grass. Breaking up and hauling away concrete and asphalt is difficult and time-consuming without the proper equipment and may be worth having the pros do that work.</p></div>

Q: How long does concrete finishing take?

• <div><p>Application typically takes 1-3 days, depending on the size of the area and the drying time for overlays or sealants.</p></div>

Q: Does concrete stain need to be sealed?

• <div><p>Always seal concrete stain to protect against wear and preserve the color. This applies to acid- and water-based stains but not always to concrete paint. Many paints designed for outdoor use contain ingredients designed to protect and waterproof without the need for additional sealant. Fortunately, learning <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-seal-concrete.htm">how to seal concrete</a> is something most DIY-savvy homeowners can tackle.</p></div>

Q: Is concrete stain better than concrete paint?

• <div><p>Whether concrete stain is better than concrete paint depends on your desired aesthetic, DIY skills, and budget. Concrete stain is more durable than concrete paint and provides a unique, translucent, natural finish. Concrete paint comes in a wider range of colors, is easier and less costly to apply, and helps cover existing stains and blemishes. </p></div>

The color and finish on the new patio does not match the old portion that was not removed. The sheen on the patio is very hard to keep clean and sweats, making it hard to walk on. There are places where the concrete splashed on the brick of our house that needs to be removed. There are holes...

Mr. Brooks was fantastic to work with. We had issues working around the rainy spring weather, but that's to be expected this time of the year. He and his crew came out on a Thursday and built the frame after first excavating the grass. They then were out the next morning to pour and smooth the...

We signed the contract on 04/19/13 and paid half down. They finally "demo'd" our existing fence on 04/30/13. They did not come back until 05/09/13 when they sent a crew they had hired on Craig's List. This crew did what they were told to do, but the layout was completely wrong. Our posts were...
